HO.6.7 |
Own Goals, in competitions where they are awarded, do not count towards the grading of player markets. Player markets will be graded on the next Attacking Goal player to score in the match.
For example, if the first goal of the match is an own goal, and the second goal of the match an Attacking Goal, then both the "First Goalscorer" and "Second Goalscorer" markets will be graded based on the scorer of the second goal.
|
HO.6.8 |
For the “Last Goalscorer” market, should the last goal be an own goal, the market will be graded on the scorer of the previous Attacking Goal player to score in the match.
For example, if the last goal of the match where there are three goals is an own goal, the “Last Goalscorer” market will be graded based on the scorer of the second goal of the match (assuming that was an Attacking Goal).
|
HO.6.9 |
For all other wagers involving goals, own goals will count, unless otherwise stated. |
HO.6.10 |
“Goalie Shutout” is credited to a goaltender who successfully stops the other team from scoring during the entire game. The goaltender must player the entire game. |
In-play |

Next Goal markets definitions: Even strength - when every team has the same number of players on the ice; Power-play - a goal is considered to be a power-play goal if the team with the numerical advantage scores; Short-handed - a goal is considered to be a short-handed goal if the team with the numerical disadvantage scores; Penalty shot - a penalty shot is considered to be a goal, if converted. |

Where no further goals are scored in a match, the “Next Scorer” market available will be graded as a winning selection for “Neither”. |
HO.7.4 |

Penalty shootout goals (after regular season overtime) do not count toward these markets.
|
HO.7.6 |
Next Power Play markets:
If multiple power play markets are created before a power play occurs, the outcome of the next applicable power play will be used to grade all previously ungraded markets. For example, if markets are created at 0-0, 1-0, 1-1, 2-1 then the first power play (home team) occurs and a home goal is scored, all of those Next Power Play Result and Team Next Power Play Result - Home markets will be graded as "Goal".
If multiple power play markets are created before a power play occurs, the outcome of the next applicable power play will be used for grading all previously ungraded markets. For example, if markets are created at 0-0, 1-0, 1-1, 2-1 then the first power play (home team) occurs and a home goal is scored, all of those Next Power Play Result and Team Next Power Play Result - Home markets will be graded as "Goal".
A power play does not have to last the full duration for applicable markets to be graded. For example, if the Home Team has 40 seconds remaining on a minor power play, then commits a penalty to bring the skaters to 4-on-4, the market will be graded as "No Goal". If a team is on a power play and the game ends, the market will be graded according to what occurred during the abbreviated power play.
Double minor penalties count as two power plays. For example, if a goal is not scored during the first two-minute power play of a double minor then one is scored during the second two-minute power play, an applicable market would be graded using the first power play, which was "No Goal". However, if a goal is scored during the first power play of a double minor, new markets will create on the goal with the updated score and, if applicable to the team on power play, will be graded using the outcome of the second power play.
Penalty shots occurring at even strength do not count as power plays.
Penalties assessed at the end of the game (no time left) that would count as power plays if there was any time on the clock, do not count as power plays. Any markets that would have applied to this power play will be deemed no action and void.

Specific market rules |
SO.6.1 |
While we endeavor to quote all eligible players in player markets, we may on occasion not list a player, or to add a player to markets after the markets are first published. Patrons may request players to be added to markets on request.
As such, for player markets ("First Goalscorer", "Last Goalscorer", "Anytime Goalscorer" and similar), if goals are scored by players not listed, all wagers will stand and be graded as if the winning selections were listed.
|
SO.6.2 |
For the following rules related to player markets only, we define an Attacking Goal to be a goal that is not deemed to be an Own Goal, i.e., a goal scored by a player of the scoring team. |

Own Goals do not count towards the grading of player markets. Player markets will be graded on the next Attacking Goal player to score in the match.
For example, if the first goal of the match is an own goal, and the second goal of the match an Attacking Goal, then both the "First Goalscorer" and "Second Goalscorer" markets will be graded based on the scorer of the second goal.
|
SO.6.4 |
For the “Last Goalscorer” market, should the last goal be an own goal, the market will be graded on the scorer of the previous Attacking Goal player to score in the match.
For example, if the last goal of the match where there are three goals is an own goal, the “Last Goalscorer” market will be graded based on the scorer of the second goal of the match (assuming that was an Attacking Goal).
|
SO.6.5 |
For the "First Goalscorer" market, wagers made on players who had not participated in the match prior to the first Attacking Goal being scored, will be deemed no action and voided, as those players had not had the opportunity to score the first goal. |
SO.6.6 |
For “Goalscorer” markets (Last, Anytime, 2+, 3+, To Score a Header, To Score Outside of the Penalty Box) any player who participates within the event will be considered as having action, as they had the opportunity to score that goal. Wagers made on players who did not participate in the match will be deemed no action and voided. |
SO.6.7 |
We define other statistical based player markets (e.g., player shots, tackles, passes, assists, star player) to be Player Props.
Unless otherwise stated, for Player Prop markets, if the player does not start the event, then wagers are deemed no action and voided, regardless of what that player goes on to do if coming on as a substitute.
|

TE.3.2 |
In the case of a player withdrawal or disqualification, all other markets (except Money Line or Match Winner) will be deemed no action and voided unless the outcome of the market is already determined.
In the case of a withdrawal or disqualification at a point in time where the current score of the event has not directly determined the outcome of a market, but where the only possible eventual scores would determine a specific selection would be graded as a winner, then that market will be deemed as action, and the market graded on that result. For example, if a withdrawal happened at 3-3 in the first set, the “O/U 8.5 first set games” market would be graded with Over 8.5 games as the winning selection, and Under 8.5 games as the losing selection, as the minimum number of games that could be played if the withdrawal had not have happened, is 9.
A market will be deemed no action and refunded if a winning selection cannot be determined, even if some selections are no longer theoretically possible (e.g. Player retires at 1-1 in sets, all 'Correct Score - Best of 3 Sets' wagers are refunded, including 2-0 scorelines).
